In an e-mail sent Sunday afternoon:

Tiger Nation,

Yesterday was an amazing day for Mizzou because of you. From College GameDay in the morning to the victory over Kansas last night, we cannot thank you enough for your support of Tiger Basketball. Thanks for helping us show the nation that we have the best fans in college basketball. You displayed an incredible amount of class and made us proud to be Tigers.

The atmosphere at Mizzou Arena was truly special. Loud doesn't even begin to describe it. Your enthusiasm from tip-off to last possession was unrivaled. Thanks to you, our 6th Man, the floor was literally shaking during the last few minutes of the game.

We are proud to 21 and 2, but know we would not be in the position without your support. I am blessed to be the Head Basketball Coach at the University of Missouri and want you to know our team, coaches and staff are thankful for the opportunity to represent Mizzou.

We can't wait to see you at Mizzou Arena when we take on Baylor next Saturday, Feb. 11th at 12:30pm It will be another match-up of Top 10 teams so Arrive Early, Wear Gold, Be Loud and help us Beat Baylor!

Thanks and Go Tigers! M-I-Z!

Coach Frank Haith

i thought his pregame request was heeded by a lot of people.

i hear about 2% of the f*&k ku chants as i expected to after hearing rmn’s reaction to it. i was optimistic it would have an effect until i heard doubters say i was being naive. HA! humankind doesn’t suck as bad as some people think; except in kansas where it’s worse. gotta love frank haith.
